My new 7.5" pistol

[BrianS]

How do people shoot AR pistols?

Do they use the buffer tube as a substitute stock or shoot them pushed out with sling tension old school SAS mp-5 style?

Just curious.

Thanks. I already have a couple SBR lowers. It's posted in the NFA/SBR picture thread with and without the suppressor. I keep one pistol lower in case I want to cross over into Kentucky with it. No paper work needed.
I use both methods to shoot. I can put the buffer tube against my shoulder and get nose to charging handle. It's a little short but doe-able. You can also use the tight sling method with buffer tube against the cheek. I prefer the shoulder.

would a modified A1 RE do anything for you?

I'm sorry, you lost me.

I'm sorry, you lost me.

a rifle receiver extension with the screw hole plugged, so it's legal for pistol use. it'd give you an extra couplefew inches

Thanks, I understand now. And yes it would.

Snazzy! I couldn't decide if I wanted to go 7.5" with mine or not. I decided 11.5" only because I plan to go SBR someday.

Don't worry about the price. If there is one thing I learned building my AR, it's that you don't save any money at all; you get to customize your platform with the components of your choice. It looks like you've done that and used very good components. Glad to hear there are no serious hiccups. Enjoy!

Thanks. I already have a couple SBR lowers and a 10.5 and 11.5 uppers. I really wanted something short to use my .22 conversion in and figured why not just build a 7.5" 5.56 so it has two functions.
I keep it on a pistol lower most of the time. But it's a lot of fun on the SBR lower with or without the .22 and can.
I even ran it with 5.56 and my .308 can with no problems. Tones it down quite a bit.

Yup they all add up. I'm pricing out a pistol build as well, and the sticker shock is kind of keeping me back from pulling the trigger
